Oddly enough, despite my aversion to clowns, I am friends with 2 former Ronalds…. and know a 3rd
Have 5+ more friends that are also clowns (Ringling and otherwise). Oddly enough, not all creepy
Now, show me a person that has one of those masks where you can’t see their face and I am creeped right out!

I had a dear friend who was a professional clown/magician – clown name Abby-Cadabra – and also one of a select few certified to portray Ronald McDonald. (He had to go to a special school run by McD’s to become certified.) He hated that clowns got such a bad rap when most just want to make people laugh. “IT” was especially distressing for him, as it even made his own daughter apprehensive toward clowns.

Does the person who posted this picture know what this little girls name is?? I was browsing through these pictures and I came across this one and … it looks IDENTICAL to what I looked like as a child. If this is a photo of me, that would be really really weird.

I am thinking the same thing. This really does look like me when I was a child. We should all get pics of us when we were this age and share them with each other to decide who this little girl actually is.

This is actually a picture of me! I didn’t even realize my mom posted it until my cousin ran across it and sent it to me. I even put this is my yearbook as my senior baby picture. That is too funny that it looks like you guys as kids, too.

I once met a Ronald McDonald and had a similar reaction, and I was probably 25 at the time. It turns out that even if a clown happens to be Ronald McDonald, he’s still going to be creepy IRL. Pretty soon, I’ll need a security blanket of my own if I keep thinking about it… *shudders*

mete = measure or to give out by measure (syn dole, often used with punishment)
Were you intending to imply that she should discipline the clown? And proude? What is this a reproduction of a pilgrim’s town?
